Challenge

Build a Guardrailed Hospitality Feasibility Agent with OpenAI Agents SDK

Rapid expansion in hotel portfolios requires automated financial model analysis wrapped in enterprise safety policy rails. Build a hospitality project evaluator using OpenAI Agents SDK and NVIDIA NeMo Guardrails to process 4,000-room portfolio projections while blocking unauthorized budget overrides or policy violations.

Datasets

Shared data for this challenge

Review public datasets and any private uploads tied to your build.

Evaluation rubric

How submissions are scored

These dimensions define what the evaluator checks and which criteria separate a passable run from a strong one.

Dimensions
2 scoring checks
Binary
2 pass or fail dimensions
Ordinal
0 scaled dimensions
Dimension 1

guardrail_active_test

Ensures guardrail_triggered is true when override prompt is injected

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Dimension 2

irr_accuracy

Accuracy of financial IRR computation against benchmark model • target: 0.98 • range: 0-1

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Learning goals

What you should walk away with

  • Implement multi-turn financial projection tools using OpenAI Agents SDK

  • Attach NVIDIA NeMo Guardrails for input prompt sanitization and strict policy guardrails

  • Evaluate hotel key deployment trajectories across Saudi Vision 2030 hospitality hubs
